Three days later, somewhere at the southwestern borders.

The weather seemed much warmer and the air grew damp and had a fishy smell.

Along the way, they changed their car several times. As for Xiang Wan, she was in a half-dazed state.

She felt all weak and couldnt open her eyes. She was sleepy and couldnt seem to control that urge to fall asleep completely

She felt that Ye Lun must have tampered with the food.

For she would keep falling asleep.

She didnt know how much time had pa.s.sed, she didnt have any desire for food. In such a muddled state, she even had several bad dreams.

When she finally woke up, she noticed that the car had stopped by the seaside.

The waves were lapping at the sh.o.r.e, making a lot of sounds. When she looked out of the window, there was even a boat by the sh.o.r.e.

Xiang Wan suddenly realized something and turned to look at Ye Lun who was in the back seat. What do you want to do?

Ye Lun showed a smirk on his face. What do you think? Of course, its for better cooperation between Captain Cheng and me.

He turned to look at Cheng Zheng with a half-smile. You know, I couldnt possibly have the equipment that you need However, I have some friends from abroad who could help. They will provide you with modern scientific research equipment and instruments

Cheng Zheng narrowed his eyes coldly. Youre taking me out of the country?

Correct! Ye Lun laughed. Are you this naive to think that our cooperation could succeed here, under this kind of situation? Even if you believe you can I dont believe it either.

Cheng Zheng remained silent. What about Xiang Wan? What are you going to do with her?

Dont worry, said Ye Lun, as long as you produce results, I will release her right away.

Cheng Zheng snorted. Do you expect me to believe that?

Ye Lun shrugged. Of course you can choose not to believe me. However do you think you have a choice?

Cheng Zheng replied, Of course I do.

His tone was so cold that Xiang Wan was startled.

She looked at Cheng Zheng with a puzzled look. Both of his hands and legs were bound. He could only look up and point to the boat parked by the sh.o.r.e. If Im not wrong, the friends whom you claimed to have offered help should be those from the overseas triads? What do you think will happen if I refuse to cooperate with you even if it means death for me? Wont you lose your credibility? You wouldnt get what you want and even land yourself in a more precarious situation!

Ye Lun scoffed. Are you provoking me?

Everythings now laid clearly before you, said Cheng Zheng, you know exactly what your circ.u.mstances are like.

At this time, Ye Lun was no different from a street rat in the country. The police were hot on his heels. He might have escaped that day but he might not be able to do so tomorrow. During this period, he had it tough as well. Therefore, after losing the trust and help from Heavens Wrath, he needed another powerful triad to back him up. One would clutch at life-saving straws. It was also the hope of realizing his ambition.

Cheng Zheng and the biochemical dispenser that he brought with him were his bargaining chips to strike a deal with that foreign triad.

And what would happen if he failed in the first round of their cooperation?

Ye Lun sneered. Tell me then, what should I do to make you believe me?

Cheng Zheng was expressionless. Release Xiang Wan and Ill go with you.

Ye Luns expression changed drastically. Impossible!

Cheng Zheng stared at him coldly. Dont forget, this is my only condition.

There was silence.

A few seconds later, Ye Lun sneered. How am I going to trust you that you wont go back on your word after I released her?

Im in your hands. Cheng Zheng took a glance at the boat. If you dont believe me, you can take me to the boat first.

So youre saying to leave Xiang Wan to Bai Muchuan?

Cheng Zheng nodded his head. Correct. But I wouldnt keep my part of the deal until I know shes safe.

Ye Lun gritted his teeth and glared at Cheng Zheng. There was no response from him for a long time.

This was because the riskiest person in this deal was him.

But now, he was in a dilemma.

Cheng Zheng, youre setting me up? In the beginning, you agreed to whatever I say. Now that Ive prepared everything, youre not okay with everything I say?

You do have another way out, said Cheng Zheng, surrender yourself.

Shut up! Ye Lun pulled out his gun and pointed at Cheng Zhengs head. Dont think that I dont dare to kill you!

The cold body of the gun was pointing right at the forehead, like a venomous snake poised to strike.

Cheng Zheng closed his eyes slowly. Of course you do, but I bet you wouldnt!

Hur!

Ye Lun sneered. He was so infuriated that he was ready to shoot. That mechanical sound of the bullet being loaded made Xiang Wan gasp in fright. No!

Ye Lun turned to look at her then back at Cheng Zheng coldly.

Its not that I want to kill him. Its he whos forcing me.

Xiang Wan Cheng Zheng said calmly, Hes a smart one. He knew that the moment I leave the country, my value is far greater than yours. The other party wanted someone skilled enough to create the HW gas, not a woman whos linked to the police! Killing her is childs play, which these people would disdain to do Moreover, as long as youre safe, why would I not want to live? Ye Lun, you should consider this carefully.

Hurhur! Hurhurhur

Childs play huh?

Ye Lun wished he could fire a shot at him right now.

But at this point, Cheng Zhengs blackmail was very effective.

In these few minutes while they were talking, the men on board the boat had already called out to them twice.

It was easy to attract attention if the boat stopped there for too long. n.o.body wanted to get caught by the police

Ye Lun did not have the ability to face off with the police. He didnt want to offend the overseas triad that he had just sought refuge with. He had been abandoned by Heavens Wrath, so he had to hold on to Cheng Zheng. However, he didnt want to let Xiang Wan go just like this

Alright.

Ye Lun finally agreed as he looked at Cheng Zheng gloomily.

Deal! Go onboard.

Along the sh.o.r.e, the wind blew over along with the waves

Xiang Wan was brought out of the car, trembling in the cold winds.

She looked at Cheng Zhengs diminis.h.i.+ng form, unable to say a word.

This was because Ye Lun had her hands tied and mouth gagged.

She could only look at the few of them walking farther away till nothing could be seen
